Globally assign Class?

[Bill Kuehnling]

I have a class that I'd like to access it's methods from many different subs and functions. Is there a way to globally assign MyClass? (ie: GLOBAL Stuff AS NEW MYCLASS ) Or do I have to always LET Stuff = CLASS "MyClass" in every sub and function of my application?

Try making your Interface global and then you only have to do the Class assignment once, preferably in PBMAIN.

Global Stuff As StuffInterface

Function PBMAIN() As Long

   LET Stuff = CLASS "MyClass" 

End Function

If its possible, (and probably is, but I wont go there), Depending on your application, it may be more advisable to keep local (as MCM would say under "Procedural" code), but thats just me spouting off a thought

Objects and COM are way too new for me to mess with (without my trappings of a VB background to give a REAL answer) but gut feeling tells me to follow the PB examples and learn from those to try and avoid a "VB Train of Thought"

Thanks Paul. Just tried that and it works the way I hoped.

Cliff, I know what you mean and am doing this as a matter of "convenience". It's a direct interface and isn't a COM object.
